Error creating image for STM32 board with buildroot

[ECN]

Dear

I am creating an image for the stm32mp157c_dk2_defconfig board. Using buildroot the following error appears:

The operating system is Linux Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS22.4. How can I solve this problem?

    Thanks

Hi ECN,

I had the same problem and SOLVED it !

The error is:

drivers/st/io/io_stm32image.c:249:13: error: ‘result’ may be used uninitialized [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
249 | int result;
| ^~~~~~

One of the downloaded source files  contain an uninitialized variable named: result", and the compiler doesn't like it.

Manually, open the file to correct it (in my case, I had it here):

/buildroot/output/build/arm-trusted-firmware-v2.5/drivers/st/io/io_stm32image.c

Go to line 249, and you'll find it.

Initialize the variable to zero and save the file (just add "=0"):

int result=0;

Run again the "make" command, the compiler will continue from where it stopped.

My board is running OK.

Hope it helped you :)
